A Message from VantagePoint AI The Paralysis by Analysis Fix: Finding Trades Without the Guesswork Ten indicators open across three screens. The oscillator says one thing. The moving averages say another. Volume tells a third story. And while you weigh all of it, the setup you were watching an hour ago is already gone. That is not a discipline problem, and it is not a knowledge problem. You are not short on information. You are buried in it, and one more indicator was never going to break the tie for you. The problem is the method. What a clear read looks like in a recent forecast for Roblox ($RBLX): $RBLX saw over 37% in just 22 days The AI forecasted the reversal in $RBLX, and the stock went on to see gains of over 37% in just 22 days. No debate between ten indicators. One forecast, ahead of the move.

Trading involves financial risk and is not suitable for all investors. Past results do not guarantee future performance. Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. Meta and Tesla Report Wednesday, Plus a $13 Billion Treasury Auction Wednesday, Oct. 21, is a full trading session, and the biggest news lands after the closing bell. Two of the largest US companies report results, and the Treasury sells $13 billion of long-term bonds in the afternoon. 1. Meta's third-quarter results, after the close Meta Platforms, the parent of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, is scheduled to report after the market closes, with a call at 4:30 p.m. ET, according to the company. Analysts surveyed by Nasdaq (11 estimates, read Oct. 19) expect earnings of $6.54 per share. In the second quarter, reported July 29, Meta earned $6.18 per share, down 13% from a year earlier, on $60.80 billion of revenue. That quarter included $2.40 billion of legal charges and $1.18 billion of severance costs, per its earnings release. Meta guided third-quarter revenue to $61 billion to $64 billion. The risk is spending and legal exposure. Meta expects 2026 capital spending of $130 billion to $145 billion, and it warned that youth-related trials could result in a material loss. 2. Tesla's third-quarter results, after the close Tesla said it will post results after the market closes, then hold a question-and-answer webcast at 5:30 p.m. ET, in its Oct. 2 filing. The same filing said it delivered more than 486,000 vehicles in the quarter and produced more than 464,000. Nasdaq's consensus of 10 analysts (read Oct. 19) is $0.22 per share. Nasdaq does not say if that is adjusted, so it may not match the GAAP basis, meaning standard accounting rules, that Tesla used for its second-quarter $0.32 per share. Tesla also reported negative free cash flow of $1.1 billion in the second quarter. Free cash flow is the cash left after running the business and paying for equipment and factories. 3. A $13 billion 20-year Treasury bond auction, 1 p.m. ET The Treasury is scheduled to auction $13 billion of 20-year bonds, and competitive bidding closes at 1 p.m. ET, per its offering announcement. It is a reopening, meaning more of a bond first sold on Aug. 31. Auctions have no analyst consensus. The last 20-year auction, on Sept. 15, drew a high yield (the highest rate accepted) of 5.420% and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.57. That ratio compares total bids with the amount sold. Long-term yields influence borrowing costs across the economy, so investors watch how much demand shows up. What It Means for You Companies as large as Meta and Tesla carry heavy weight in many broad index funds. Their reports can matter even to people who own neither stock. A headline profit number is only part of an earnings report. Guidance and spending plans often get as much attention, and the numbers can be shaped by one-time items like Meta's legal charges. Stocks can move sharply in either direction after a report, and nobody knows the direction in advance. That uncertainty is a normal risk of owning individual shares. Special Report: Will Anthropic Shut Regular Investors Out? (Ad) Anthropic still hasn't announced shares for regular investors in its upcoming IPO. When SpaceX went public in June, it reportedly reserved up to 30% of its IPO for retail investors. In a typical IPO, banks hand 85% to 95% of shares to hedge funds and institutions — everyone else pays up after the first-day pop. There's now a little-known backdoor letting regular investors claim a Pre-IPO stake in Anthropic and OpenAI. No millions or connections required. See how in my report Inside the Anthropic & OpenAI Pre-IPOs.
